BLUE is the Colour

Wipe away those tears, OUR future looks very bright!

  On Saturday, 19 May 2012, Chelsea Football Club etched its name in the annals of European football history by winning the 2011/ 2012 UEFA Champions League title; it’s first in its 107 year history.

Every fan on the 19th was rewarded (when our captain lifted the cup high above his head) for their undying support through the dark months and trophy less years, and in doing so silencing all critics.  After a dismal season, compounded by the late introduction of a new interim coach, attitudes within the team changed so dramatically, giving rise to one of the most awe inspiring reversals of team fortunes the European soccer fraternity has ever seen. 

Witnessing an emotionally distraught Chelsea 4 years ago in Moscow, we can now safely say that those ghosts have been laid to rest and as ardent Chelsea fans we now look forward to a new era in the club’s history. Well done to the team, well do to the manager, without whom we would not have achieved the milestones (i.e. winning the English FA Cup and UEFA Champions League) and last but not least, the owner. Thank you.

The lesson we can learn from Chelsea IS that no matter what the obstacle is in your path, through strong and trustworthy leadership; a belief in oneself and one’s ability and most importantly through teamwork, no task is insurmountable.

Today and every other single day, BLUE is the Colour. Proudly Chelsea!
